RIVERVIEW Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three RIVERVIEW sales between January 1999 and March 2014 have been plotted on the graph. A line has been extrapolated to show what the value of the property might have been over time, following each sale, had it maintained the same margin above or below the HPI (as a percentage). For example, the December 2001 sale was for 61% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 61% above the HPI over time, until the March 2014 sale, where it rises to 138% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 138% above the HPI.

What might RIVERVIEW be worth now?

RIVERVIEW might now be worth an estimated £1,197,460.

This is based on house price inflation of 60.7%, between March 2014 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Colchester local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 60.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for RIVERVIEW of £745,000 on 17th March 2014. For the value to have increased from £745,000 to £1,197,460 over the eleven years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of RIVERVIEW has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Colchester local authority area.
• The March 2014 sale price of £745,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of RIVERVIEW has not materially changed since March 2014.
